A place where I blog the goings on in my own little corner of the world. I like to talk about the books I read, the classes I teach, the homeschooling I plan on doing, weight loss strategies, among other things.

COTT: Congratulations Christine Lindsay!

by Michelle Massaro

Christine Lindsay crowned COTT champ!

Shadowed in Silk won the vote for Best Back Cover Blurb against competitor Sunny Eads.

A clip of her winning excerpt:

After the Great War, Abby Fraser returns to India with her small son, where her husband is stationed with the British army. She has longed to go home to the land of glittering palaces and veiled women . . . but Nick has become a cruel stranger. It will take more than her American pluck to survive.

Both really pulls you in but the romance of India under the Bristh rule caught my attention.

Oh, India! Sounds mysterious!! Makes me wonder if this is a romance or not. Would def give this book a go.

Blurb B is just so intriguing! Definitely makes me want to read the whole thing. So much clearly going on.

Christine says:

The only reason I write is in order to encourage readers to love Christ and follow Him. He's God---if He wants me to succeed, then He'll make it happen. And if He wants me to have quiet success, then I'll praise the Lord for that. read the full interview here.About her experience with COTT she writes: I'm so thankful for this opportunity. Thank you every one, especially Sunny and Lisa. What a fun contest. And to every one for their positive comments.
